A handful of restaurant tables in New York just became even more coveted reservations. Tacking onto the 15 New York additions to the Michelin Guide announced in September, the Michelin Guide just named 11 more restaurants.
Already, New York City is home to 449 Michelin recommended restaurants, including 73 starred spots, ranging from fine dining to more humble options.
This month’s additions are the last before the annual award ceremony on November 7 and include longtime local favorites as well as some newer spots, including an Eastern European diner in Brooklyn and Hong Kong cinema-inspired dining.
Listed alphabetically, the new additions start with Prospect Heights’ Agi’s Counter, Chef Jeremy Salamon’s pink-decorated ode to his Hungarian grandmother.
Outside of the city, Apropos Restaurant at The Abbey Inn is about an hour’s train ride from Grand Central to Peekskill, where a 120-year-old abbey above the Hudson River serves farm-to-table cuisine in its stylishly restored space.
Fasano, from the São Paulo-based Fasano hospitality group, opened in 2022 and has now gained recognition, and the Prospect Lefferts Garden seafood destination, Kingfisher, is also newly included following a 2022 opening.
Joining Rangoon as a one of the Michelin Guide’s recommended Burmese restaurants in New York, Little Myanmar is now on the list. The 14-seat East Village eatery is beloved for its shareable curries, noodles and fermented tea leaf salad.
Known for its pricey homemade hot dog, Midtown’s Mischa by Chef Alex Stupack is on the list, as is Husband-and-wife duo, Chef Jimmy Ly and Yen Vo’s upscale Vietnamese spot, Monsieur Vo.
Two popular (but very different) Chinese restaurants are named: Peppercorn Station, a Sichuan restaurant near Bryant Park, and Chinatown’s Potluck Club, a contemporary take on Cantonese American cuisine known for dishes such as Berkshire pork pot stickers and Southern-style scallion biscuits.
Rounding out the list is one of New York’s hardest reservations to secure, Torrisi, Major Food Group’s SoHo hotspot known for its creative and well-executed menu, paying tribute to New York’s diversity in dishes like cavatelli with Jamaican oxtail ragu, chopped liver with Manischewitz and cucumbers New Yorkese.
Finally, Brooks Headley’s first-come, first-served vegetarian spot, Superiority Burger, finishes off the list. There’s truly something for everyone in these new recommendations.
